How high is that tank? What did you have before the Kessils?

tank is 120 aqueon. 48x24x24 and I was using Coralife Aqualight pro before
2x250w MH and 2 96watt PC, + 4 one watt moonlights totalling 700 watts of power usage. The Kessils are rated at 90 watts each, so I think the energy savings would be a lot, down the road, and no bulb replacements. Loving it.

What I like best about them is the ability to change the colors manually.
I'm old school and don't like having to program things electronically.

for fish only, 2 a350w 's should be enough over a 6 foot tank. If you were doing corals, then you would need 3 of them

Nice! I have 2 of the Kessil A350W Tuna Blues over my tank as well. I see you've got some clams in there, what kinds are they?

I keep reading that maxima and many other clams need MH lighting... LEDs being so new, I haven't seen any info on whether LED's are strong enough for most clams coloring to thrive under them. I really want to add a clam or two to my tank, so seeing yours under the same lights as I have makes me so happy!!!

Hows the color on your clams? They look awesome from what I can tell!
